Exegesis
The second part shifts from the plural prophetic promise to an individual application through the substantival participial phrase pas ho akousas para tou patros kai mathōn {πᾶς ὁ ἀκούσας παρὰ τοῦ πατρὸς καὶ μαθὼν | pâs ho a-koú-sas pa-rà toû pa-trós kaí ma-thṓn}, “everyone who has heard from the Father and has learned.” Here para with the genitive marks the Father as the personal source of the hearing, and by coordination naturally extends to the learning as well.
Root and etymology
patērpi–alpha–tau–eta–rho
